A large cordon was put around the site, opposite Hymers Avenue, today for forensic teams to comb the area.

Officers also made door-to-door enquiries with neighbours and were seen taking away a coat as potential evidence.

Police were in Spring Bank West

Residents spoke of their fears about the area after waking up to see the crime scene on their street.

Donna Crook, 42, said: “It’s surprising to wake up to but lots of things happen there and there are a lot of incidents and crime on Spring Bank and I think quite a lot of them go into the cemetery to drink on a night. It’s not nice.

“It’s worrying. I like to walk my dogs in there. I feel safe in the day but I would never got in there in the night time. It’s not nice to see it on your doorstep.

“My son does walk down Spring Bank on a night out so it does worry me seeing that.”

Meanwhile, Humberside Police are appealing for more witnesses to come forward.
